Wintermute sux teh peen!  AGS does too!  I boycot!

Good-day, infidels!

It's a... fetus!


Not sure if it's a girl or a boy.  The umbilical cord was in the way.  The doctor seems to think "boy".

Did you end up winning her heart?

Hem Mr. Hyde, did you win her heart?

She and I ended up having a little bit of a summer fling. 

Well, no, not on purpose.  I was showing off for a girl I liked, and shit just happened.

One time I stuck my foot under the lawnmower, and BLAP!  It was like the toe of my tennis shoe suddenly exploded.

12 stitches.

I went to Underdogs site just now, and it seems to be down, yet again... or did I miss something?

Although, to me, $10 would also be something that would normally be spent without a thought, it's feels like a lot of money to me at the moment, because I'm beyond broke.

I went to my mom's house tonight, and I dug out a bunch of my old toys.  I dug out all of my old games (Sega Genesis, NES, & SNES), my comic books, and my comic cards.

I started wondering, "I wonder how much I could get for this stuff on E-bay?"  I'm in a bit of a crunch right now, my car has been acting up, and I've been missing a lot of work lately because of it.

But, I don't just wanna put all of this stuff up for sale on e-bay for a couple bucks, and then, later on, come to find out I could have gotten more for it.  To me, this isn't just junk, I grew up with this stuff.  I'm willing to part with it, but I want to know if any of it's worth anything.  I know all of the stuff is really nothing special, but to me it's got sentimental value.

I was wondering if anyone knows of an appraisal resource of some type for these kinds of things?  I could go and buy a copy of Wizard and find out how much the comics and the cards are worth, but I don't have the $10 to shell out for it (I'm not even sure if they put the price guides in the magazine anymore).

The thing is, I've got the full 1995 Fleer Ultra X-Men set, with all of the chase cards (except one).  It's got to be worth something.  The whole set is in pretty good condition, I've taken good care of it, and the set is over 10 years old.  I've even got an unnumbered card that's not on the checklist for that set.  I found the card I need to fully complete the set on E-bay for $2, I'm more than likely going to buy it.

As for the video games, I don't even know what to ask for them.

I've already searched google quite a bit, but I can't seem to find a price guide, or any type of appraisal site.  Any tips?

He sure looks grumpy, but... mexican? XD

Yeh, just put a sombrero on him, and you'll see what I mean.

IMO... I'd take one of the last two edits before yours, Ptraci.  Nothing personal, its just:
1.  It doesn't quite look like EMH.
2.  It looks more like some grumpy mexican guy.

I just don't get how some people can just up and leave from here.

I mean, come on... No more AGS Forums?  It's like telling Boyd that he can't masturbate anymore.  Think about it.  Surely, Craigy-boy would perish!

or if my pc seems to not be acting strange.

Was that a bad use of english, or did you mean that exactly how you wrote it?

Viruses suck.  I take the easy way out.  I have AdAware, and that keeps the spyware at bay.  But if I notice the computer doing strange things (everything on the desktop appears as one of those "file type unkown" icons), I just save the important stuff to a cd, and then re-format.

Sweet!  I'll jump right on it.

Thanks.

I believe I tried that once already.  It apparently only works with Excel.  I only have MS Works (yeah, stop laughing...).

But, I'll give it another try.  Thanks much.

Can somebody give me some help on an MS Works spreadsheet?

I have an array of numbers, and I'm trying to figure out a formula that will count how many cells in a range of cells contain a specific number.

The functions included in MS Works are pretty limited, so I'm trying to combine them to get the desired effect I'm looking for.  Such as this:
=COUNT(=IF(A1:E5,1,0)=1)

But the formulas I've come up with either don't work the way I want them to, or aren't valid formulas (they contain errors, apparently).

Can anyone offer some help?

Frickin' emos. *rolls eyes*

It's pretty much my favorite animal ...

Idiot!  Gawd...

I know what you mean, the "enable developer console" tickbox should be under Options>Keyboard>Advanced, but on my game there is no "Advanced" button on the keyboard menu.  Although, I've been wrong before, so I'll check again.

I've searched all over google.  There are lots of sites that tell you what the cheat codes are, but when they instruct you with what to add to the target line, it always mentions "Sierra".  None of the sites I've found mention anything about the Steam versions of the game.

As for They Hunger, I installed the game into the Half-Life folder under "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\<my user ID>\half-life\Hunger".  They Hunger shows up on "My Games" in Steam.  Thats how I start it, from Steam.  But once I get to the game's options screen, I start a new game, and it crashes... (more than crashes, my whole computer freezes up, not even ctrl-alt-delete works).

EDIT:
After you told me I didn't need to use the "/" before a cheat command, I opened up Half-Life and tinkered with it a bit.  I typed "god", and it said "Godmode ON".  So okay, no up-slashes.  Cool.  However, "impulse 101" STILL apparently does nothing.

Also, I removed "-dev", and "-console" from the command line.  Apparently, the tilde key brings up the console no matter what in my version of the game.

Yeah.  Try that.

I bought Half-Life from Wal-Mart two days ago (also for $10).

Steam is needed to play the game in the first place, so you need to install Steam first.  I only know this because my girlfriend deleted Steam while I was at work.  I came home, hoping to play some Half-Life, and... What?  "FAIL/steam.exe not found".  She also deleted my saved games along with it.  The little brat!

Anyway, then you need to create an account on Steam.  After that, you can install Half-Life and enter the registration code.  Steam will automatically download anything else you need for the game.

I guess since someone brought this up, I'm having a few troubles.  Not with Half-Life itself, but with the cheat console, and the HL mod, They Hunger.

They Hunger crashes after I start a new game.

The cheat console doesn't appear to be working...
On the desktop, under "target" in the Half-Life shortcut properties, I have this: "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 70\hl.exe -dev -toconsole".
The tilde key brings up the console, and I type "sv_cheats 1".  That seems to register just fine.
Then I type, say, "/impulse 101".  It says "unknown command: /impulse 101" (something along the lines of that).  I even tried typing the code, and restarting a new game, or reloading, like you're supposed to do.  It still appears that it does not work.

Any suggestions?

Aha!  I've got it!

You should drop her shoulders a bit.  It makes her look a bit too buff.  Maybe if you could, lose the top of the shoulder (the round part).
